Historical Artifacts

Just a community for everyone to share artifacts, reconstructions, or replicas for the historically-inclined to admire!

Generally, an artifact should be 100+ years old, but this is a flexible requirement if you find something rare and suitably linked to an era of history, not a strict rule. Anything over 100 is fair game regardless of rarity.

Generally speaking, ruins should go to [email protected]

Illustrations of the past should go to [email protected]

Photos of the past should go to [email protected]

The sense of motion in that is palpable, I can almost hear the music playing during the portrayed fantastical dog and pony show. Imagine seeing this occasionally on it's original wearer and catching a glimpse of this weird scene portrayed on it. Eye catching to be sure, a lot of people would have seen and been delighted and charmed by this piece back in the day.
